We can't wait
Crysis
EA dropped the Crysis bomb two months back at the Game Developer's Conference: a three-minute proof-of-concept trailer that allowed us to peer into the future of first-person shooters. We swallowed our gum hard and became cemented in place as we watched (...and watched) as the jungle was torn apart by automatic weapons fire. Tree limbs cracked off, explosions ripped across the landscape and mercenaries stomped through deformable foliage.
Emerging from the dense understory, our view focused sharply on the enemy ahead, adding heavy drama to the ambush. This jungle was alive. We hadn't seen since this brand of startling photo-realism since the team's last top-drawer effort, Far Cry.
